The Clark Homestead is a historic house on Madley Road in Lebanon, Connecticut. It is a 2 12-story wood-frame structure, five bays wide, with a side-gable roof, large central chimney, and rear leanto section giving it a classic New England saltbox appearance. An ell, added in the 19th century, extends to the rear. Built c. 1708, it is believed to be Lebanon's oldest building. It was owned in the late 18th century by James Clark, a veteran of the American Revolutionary War.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on December 1, 1978.[1]
